Expensive 1903!

[Emri]

One interesting point - the 1926 barrel date is kind of rare on a "hybrid" RIA/SA - nearly all I have seen have been in the 1927-29 date range.

I have one with a 1931 barrel date. JB offered the opinion that it is original.

I'll also second John's opinion of the value (price) of the gun on auction. I thought it looked quite nice and suspected it was probably mostly original but for the stock.

Scant stocks are a bit homely looking, but if one is going to shoot it, they feel a lot better than the "S" stock.

FWIW,

I would ask for better pics of it first. And ask exactly which "early features" are present that he mentions.

Good Luck!

I missed the sling - if a WWII/WWI, that adds considerably to the value.

The rifle may be a Sedgley cadet rifle. The pictures raise far more questions than they provide answers.

Caveat Emptor! (Let the buyer beware).

I see what are Greek Style Rack numbers on the stock, and also on TOP of the bolt handle near the root.

I'm guessing Greek Return. I've been to that shop.

It's not original, a little on the rough side and over priced.
